On 6th June 1944 this aircraft is believed to have suffered engine failure in the Spurn Point area, the pilot crash landed on farmland around three miles southwest of Patrington in the area around Sunk Island. The aircraft belonged to the 555th Fighter Training Squadron, 496 Fighter Training Group, USAAF. I have yet to obtain the USAAF accident report to obtain further details.
